Late Tomato Blight in the News Again

Not a pretty picture of "late tomato blight" but evidently it is a common one in tomato farms all over the northeast. There was a recent op-ed piece in the New York Times titled "You Say Tomato, I Say Agricultural Disaster" that highlights the problem. It must be heart breaking to have to destroy a farm or garden of heirloom tomatoes. My fingers are crossed.
